Closer To Thee

Author: L. R. Clark Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9390 First Line: Closer, still closer, my Savior, to Thee Refrain First Line: Closer to Thee, still closer to Thee Lyrics: 1 Closer, still closer, my Savior, to Thee, Closer to Jesus now fain would I be; Round me His arm, on His bosom my head; Near the dear side which on Calvary bled. Refrain: Closer to Thee, still closer to Thee, Dear Savior, I want to be closer to Thee. 2 Closer by day, tho’ my sky be all bright; Closer, still closer when falleth the night; Earth hath no brightness away from His face; Time has no moment I need not His grace. [Refrain] 3 When to the Jordan of death I descend, Danger I’ll fear not if Christ be my friend; Breasting the billows, my death song shall be, Closer, still closer, my Savior to Thee. [Refrain] 4 Closer to Jesus, I’m nearer to God; Nearer the home of the Christian’s abode; Nearer the great and the glorious Three, Nearer to Heaven when closer to Thee. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Closer, still closer, my Savior, to Thee]
